As with the main game, it&#8217;s all hand drawn and animated to mimic the cartoons of the 1930s. The difference with the DLC is the sheer amount of detail. There are more frames of animation in one phase of a boss here than in an entire boss-fight in the original, I was told in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/cupheads-delicious-last-course-offers-depth-over-breadth\">preview of the game<\/a>. And that really shows. <\/p>\n<p>\nEach boss is even more of an elaborate set piece. Backgrounds are richly detailed and layered to offer a far greater sense of depth. Some boss-fights take place across multiple levels, while others literally flip the screen. And the characters themselves twist and morph into some of the wackiest designs in the entire game: across one boss-fight (shown in previews) a wizard transforms into a yeti, a fridge and a giant snowflake. This is Studio MDHR simply showing off. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/cupheads-delicious-last-course-is-short-but-tastes-so-sweet\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/cupheads-delicious-last-course-is-short-but-tastes-so-sweet\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good things come to those who slow-cook their meals, or something like that.
